In Greek mythology, Atlas was the Titan god of endurance. After warring with the Olympian gods, Zeus tasked Atlas with holding up the celestial heavens for eternity. These extraordinary new pieces from the Phillips Collection will certainly leave an impression that will endure, as the metal figures "hold up" the pieces in this series. Atlas is a perfect example of Phillips Collection's ethos: modern organic. Through exquisite design and craftsmanship, it combines nature's finest castaways in a warm contemporary setting. Support is created for each lovingly polished fragment with a symphony of science and art.
